It’s remarkable to think that after more than two decades, the truth is still out there when it comes to trading cards. The X-Files continues to be a force in the hobby, showing the same sort of staying power as such power franchises as Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel Comics, Garbage Pail Kids and just a handful of others.
On top of that, it’s now one of the only licenses in all of trading cards, covering both non-sport and sports, to have licenses with a pair of companies. Even today, major sports leagues are taking the exclusive route.
